January 12, 2014: Arrive in Cali
We had some staggered arrivals on Day 1 of the tour which gave time for folks to settle down and
prepare for our upcoming adventure. The second group to arrive (Thomason’s and Mcneely’s) got a little bit
of luck as we spotted a Common Potoo roosting right above our van at the airport, great first bird for some
of the group! Everyone got to mingle and meet, although some of us have travelled together in the past, and
dinner at Crepes and Waffles was a great opportunity to catch up and learn about our new friends. Dinner
was spectacular, and the group enjoyed learning that Colombia Birdwatch supports this establishment as
100% of their workforce is composed single moms that are heads of the family. After a decadent dessert, we
headed to the hotel to prepare four our ascent up the western Andes for our first full day of birding.

The Group at Finca La Arucana
January 13, 2014: Finca La Araucana, Bichacue Yath and Andean Cock-of-the-rock Lek
Our first full day of birding began at Finca La
Araucana, where we were met by 3 individuals of
Smoky-brown Woodpecker, American Redstart, Blue-
black Grassquit and a Squirrel Cuckoo flying around
us. The “guadua” (bamboo) greenhouses provided
an entertaining show of a family of Spectacled Par-
rotlets, and it was nice to be received by Alvaro
Calonje with some coffee and tea on the balcony.
The show started with Crimson-rumped Toucanet
and a myriad of tanagers, including Summer, Scrub,
Flame-rumped, Golden, Hepatic and Fawn-breasted.
A flowering “guayacan” tree, with its impressive yel-
low flowers, attracted Rusty Flowerpiercer and an
impressive amount of hummingbirds that included
Long-billed Starthroat, Black-throated Mango, White-
necked Jacobin, and Western and Andean Hum-
mingbirds. A very productive morning ended with a
lunch consisting of a “tamal” on the canopy terrace of
the Bichacue Yath reserve, where we were blessed
with incredible views of the endemic Colombian
Chachalaca.
The excitement in the air was felt by every-
one, and it was no secret that we were all very eager
to get to El Pato, bordering the Farallones National
Park. We arrived at Jaime Certuche’s place, where
he greeted us and shared his story with the group.
An avid hunter, Jaime changed his ways recently and
now considers himself a conservationist, caring for
an active Andean Cock-of-the-rock Lek on his prop-

Red-headed Barbet (female)
Saffron-crowned Tanager
erty that he graciously allowed us to visit. A life bird
for half of the group, 6 individuals entertained us for
a few hours, making the steep but short hike worth
our while. Content, we enjoyed some organic coffee
and fried bread offered by our hosts before heading
to the hotel in Km 18 for s nice dinner and rest.
January 14, 2014: Anchicaya
The first birds of the day were Torrent Tyran-
nulet and Yellow-faced Grassquit just outside El
Queremal. As we descended the western slope of
the western Andes in the Anchicaya region, our first
stop yielded Glistening-green Tanager and excellent
views of Brown-billed Scythebill. A superb day for
hummingbirds, we were able to add Green Thorntail,
Empress Brilliant, Purple-bibbed Whitetip, Booted
Racketatil, Violet-tailed Sylph, Green-crowned Wood-
nymph, and Greenish Puffleg to the list. The group
certainly enjoyed the very handsome Ornate Fly-
catcher, and Orange-bellied Euphonia was certainly
a crowd-pleaser.
YBlue-winged Mountain-tanager
We arrived at “El Descanso” (The Rest Stop)
and met Doña Dora and her grandson Josman, a
young birder who was as excited as can be to re-
ceive his first pair of binoculars, a thoughtful gift by
Jim and Linda Thomason. A small colony of Chest-
nut-headed Oropendolas nests near the house, so
we enjoyed these before we set out on a shot walk
as the activity at the feeders was low. We enjoyed
great views of Bat Falcon, Lemon-rumped Tanager
and Silver-throated Tanager before lunch. A delecta-
ble lunch was followed by an hour of rest and before
some great afternoon birding. Most notably we saw
Red-headed Barbet, Black-billed Peppershrike, and
Rufous-throated Tanager before a light rain had us in
the van and on the way to the hotel for a nice dinner,
list-making and rest.
January 15, 2014: El 18 We started the day walking along the road
close to the Hotel where birding is very productive.
We heard many birds like the endemic Chestnut
Wood-quail, Russet-crowned Warbler and others.
Suddenly the birds began to appear and we had
views of Streak-capped Treehunter, Scaly-naped
Parrot and the first view of the special and endemic
Multicolored Tanager.
Afterwards we took the road to The Raul’s
Place “the hummer’s paradise”. Just after getting
off the van we started to enjoy the plethora of hum-
mingbirds and tanagers visiting the feeders, the
experience with the hummers was very close and
the photographers were especially excited. Our trip
list began to grow; Long-tailed Sylph, Brown Viole-
tear, Buff-tailed coronet, Purple-throated Woodstart,
White-necked Jacobin, amongst other humming-
birds. Tanagers included Saffron-crowned, Golden,
Golden-naped, Black-capped, and Blue-winged
Mountain-Tanager. Of course, Red-headed Barbet
showed off for us before we began our hike along
the road from Raul’s place. The activity was hectic,
everyone commenting on what an amazing time they
were having. Some of the specialties we saw in-
cluded Yellow-vented Woodpecker, Green-and-black
Fruiteater, a very special and close view of Tawny-
bellied Hermit eating insects, and the amazing Col-
Green Thorntail Silver-throated Tanager
The crew riding the “brujitas”
lared. The highlight of the day was most definitely
views of a pair of Golden-headed Quetzal building a
nest. The female and the male gave us a solemn na-
ture show, On our way back to lunch the rare Scaled
Fruiteater made an appearance, and the group had a
very pleasant Tapaculo experience, in this case with
the near endemic Nariño Tapaculo.
After lunch we walked along the same road
seeing similar birds, adding specialties such as Ol-
ive-backed Woodcreeper, Golden-winged Manakin,
we had again another special experience with the
Quetzal and better views of the endemic and vulner-
able Multicolored Tanager. We went back to the Hotel
to have an early dinner and prepare for our early
morning departure down the western slope of the
western Andes towards San Cipriano, in the Pacific
Region.
January 16, 2014: San CiprianoThe day began very early, we left well before sunrise
to allow for travel time to San Cipriano. We defi-
nitely enjoyed the ride into town, and invention by
the locals that make great use of the railroad. The
“brujitas” consist of wooden carts propelled by motor-
cycles. After the exhilarating and fun ride we crossed
the small town and began seeing birds of the Colom-
bian lowlands, including Chestnut-headed Oropen-
dola, Tawny-crested and Dusky-faced Tanagers, and
Chestnut-mandible Toucan. The day was overcast
and very dark, almost omnious. As it started to driz-
zle, we found some shelter and arrived just in time,
as an excellent mixed flock was coming through.
Special birds feeding in this flock included the near
endemic Blue-whiskered Tanager, Cinnamon Becard,
Cinnamon Woodpecker, Black-cheecked Wood-
pecker, Masked Tityra, Black-tipped Cotinga. A very
special Woodcreeper the appeared in the scene, this
one was the Black-striped Woodcreeper, a lifer for
Jose. Other birds worth mentioning include White-
tailed Trogon and Choco Toucan.
Birding along the road in the road we saw the un-
common Black-breasted Puffbird, Western-slaty Ant-
shrike, and of course we did not miss the opportunity
to see the natural swimming pools at the Escalerete
River. Finishing the morning we saw Choco Toucan
and Blue Dacnis before we had a delectable lunch
consisting of fried fish and fish sancocho. We then
drove over the Western Andes to the Cauca Valley,
and had a very pleasant dinner at the hotel in Buga.
January 17, 2014: Sonso Lagoon We arrived at sunrise at the Sonso Lagoon and were
Black-breasted Puffbird
received by the spectacular Cocoi Heron, and the
sunrise was beautiful with nice birds as Yellow Oriole,
Ringed Kingfisher, and White-tailed Kite. Bob spotted
an easy bird to hear but not to see, Striped Cuckoo.
A nice Osprey then flew overhead with a big fish, and
we focused our attention on the banks of the Cauca
River. Lesser and Greater Yellow-legs, Black- bellied
Whistling-duck, Greater Ani, and Amazon Kingfisher
made an appearance. After this nice spot on the road
we headed toward the reserve entrance, but a man
riding a bicycle talked to us about a flooded corn
plantation that had just been cut, teeming with birds.
We trusted the man, our birders instinct play-
ing a bit into this, and headed towards the field.
What an amazing place to see wetland birds! We
saw Purple Gallinule, Wattled Jacana, Snail Kite, but
a surprise was waiting for all of us. We scanned the
wetland that was teeming with common birds such
as Glossy Ibis and many Great Egrets. And the sur-
prise of the day was a rare, localized and gorgeous
bird: Comb Duck. A lifer for all of us!
The rest of the morning brought many spe-
cialties of the Sonso lagoon, including Jet Antbird,
Lineated Woodpecker, Fulvous Whistling-duck,
and Limpkin. Our last stop of the morning ws at the
reserve entrance, where we saw the endemic Apical
Flycatcher, Piratic Flycatcher, closed views of Lesser
Night-hawk, and fun shows of nesting Spectacled
Parrotlet. We left Sonso Lagoon with, and on our way
out made one more stop with Dario, the ranger of the
reserve. Excellent views of Common Potoo were had
by all.
We had rest at the hotel, and time to enjoy
the swimming pool before feasting on Sancocho, a
typical lunch of the Cauca Valley Area. We headed
towards Pereira, crossing the Cauca Valley and
making our way up the central Andes. We crossed
the city and arrived at the Otun River with perfect
light to search for Torrent Duck, unsuccessfully. As
we arrived at the lodge and sunset we saw Cauca
Guan, an endemic and endangered species which
was rediscovered in 1990. We had a tasty dinner and
everyone tried the “pitaya”, a singular fruit that Scott
Endemic Apical Flycatcher The Very Local Comb Duck
bought to give to the group as a dessert.
January 18, 2014: Otun-Quimbaya We started the morning birding around the
lodge where we saw several species such as Flame-
rumped Tanager, Red-ruffed Fruitcrow one of our
target birds. Other good birds included Swainsons
Thrush and the uncommon Speckled-faced Parrot.
We had breakfast and went on a search for Torrent
Duck, which everyone was hoping to see. On our
way we had very good views of a single Howler Mon-
key, but our first stop at a bridge over the Otun River
was unsuccessful for the duck. We met Fraybel, who
graciously invited us into his home, and we even
got a nice concert by his son Bryan playing Andean
A Fine Group along the Otun River
music on the flute. We had some delicious organic
coffee, stopping for one more try at Torrent Duck at
a broken bridge. The space was tight, but we some-
how managed to get the entire group situated so we
all got a good luck at both the male and female. Very
content, we returned to the lodge for lunch and some
down time before afternoon birding. The afternoon
brought a few more views of Multicolored Tanager
and the highlight was most definitely a female An-
dean Cock-of-the-rock and close up views of Cauca
Guan.
January 19, 2014: Otun-Quimbaya and drive to Rio Blanco
The day started having great views from the
lodge of Speckled-faced Parrot eating “aguacatillo”
fruits. We then birded a trail through the forest where
we had very nice views of Green Jay. We then took
the road to Pez Fresco and where able to get good
looks of White-naped Brush-finch, Emerald Tou-
canet, Highland Motmot, and close to the river Tor-
rent Tyrannulet and Golden-crowned Flycatcher.
We took an early lunch and headed towards
Manizales and the Rio Blanco Reserve, watching for
Torrent Duck along the Otun River. One stop along
the river yielded incredible views of 2 male Torrent
Duck (one juvenile), with an epic view of a female a
few hundred yards downstream. We said our good-
byes to Mary and Scott in Pereira and made a brief
stop at El Lago which yielded Least Grebe, and
some delicious homemade ice cream along the road
to help with the heat. In Manizales we did a short
city tour taking “the Gondola”, a type of transport of
this city where we had good views of Manizales. We
cruised the downtown area enjoying the city sights,
trying some different street food, and then made
our way up to Rio Blanco. We had “Ajiaco” for din-
ner, a typical Andean dish made with three types of
potatoes and chicken and garnished with capers and
cream. There was much excitement in the air dream-
ing about the Antpittas that were to come the next
day.
January 20, 2014: Rio Blanco Reserve The morning started of fabulously, just around
the lodge we saw one of the target birds for the trip,
the uncommon Masked Saltator provided us a show
as an individual gathered nesting material and trans-
ported it to the next. At the same time were rewarded
with views of the near endemic Rusty-faced Parrot
and the noisy Black-collared Jay. We could hardly
contain ourselves as we hiked up the hill towards the
first of 3 antpitta feeders, which proved to be quite
productive. Within a couple of hours we have had
amazingly close-up views of Brown-banded, Chest-
nut-crowned, Bicolored, Slate-headed, and Chestnut-
naped Antpittas. Another lifer for Jose, near the feed-
ers we saw White-capped Tanager, which enchanted
us with its great colors. A mixed flock quickly swept
by, affording views of species such as Black –eared
and Superciliared Hemispingus, Pearled Treerun-
ner, Golden-fronted Whitestart and Crimson-mantled
Woodpecker. The photographers in the group cer-
Torrent Duck Chestnur-crowned Antpitta
tainly enjoyed Masked Trogon, and a few folks in the
group saw Undulated Antpitta crossing the wide trail.
Other birds we saw this morning included Blue-and-
black Tanager, Grass-green Tanager, and Andean
Guan.
Before lunch we tried unsuccessfully for
Blackish Tapaculo, and the enjoyed some tasty
beans for lunch and had some time for a siesta. The
afternoon was less productive than the morning; we
had great views of Blue-and-black Tanager, Emerald
Toucanet, and views of the landscape of Caldas area
around Rio Blanco Preserve.
January 21, 2014: Rio Blanco and drive to Ter-males del Otoño We devoted the morning to look for Tapaculos
and other target birds we were missing. We tried first
for Black-billed Mountain-toucan which we saw in
the morning, and had great views of this one before
noon. Birding in the forest was productive, we saw
some birds we were missing such as Ash-colored
Tapaculo, Rufous-headed Pygmy-Tyrant, Green-and-
black Fruiteater, Sickle-winged Guan, Andean Guan.
And finishing the morning we had an excellent mixed
flock where we saw Tawny-bellied Hermit, Wedge-
billed Hummingbird, Capped Conebill, Mountain
Cacique, and Black-capped Hemispingus.
After lunch we said goodbye to our splendid staff.
Albeiro and Celene, and we started walking down the
road. We then heard a loud drumming in the forest
which was the big and pretty Powerful Woodpecker,
male and female gave us a great show. We then
spotted red and yellow in the canopy and it was Red-
hooded Tanager, another target we were missing.
Bearded Helmetcrest
We then had nice views of Highland Motmot, and the
amazing Golden-plumed Parakeet eating seeds in
the canopy over us was a nice way to say goodbye
to Rio Blanco.
We went to Los Termales Del Otono, the hotel
where we spent the night, and celebrated Linda’s
birthday before going to bed early to prepare for our
ascent to Los Nevados National Park.
January 22: Los Nevados National Park All of were very excited for this day, and the
amazing sunrise was a premonition of a very good
day. We started birding the lower elevations before
ascending, and saw birds such as Plumbeus Sierra-
finch and Paramo and Plain-colored Seedeaters. We
continued ascending and at the next birding stop we
saw Glossy Flowerpiercer, Golden-breasted Puffleg,
Viridian Metaltail, Scarlett-bellied Mountain-tanager,
Black-back Bush-tanager and Black-chested Buz-
zard-eagle. At he end of the road we had incredibly
close-up views of Bearded Helmetcrest, a special
hummingbird that was a target for the trip. We then
saw Tawny Antpitta a funny and friendly Antpitta. We
had “trucha” (trout) for lunch at almost 4,000 meters
with the idea to bird during our descent. This plan
proved to be quite a stellar plan, as the afternoon
yielded most of the targets we had left to see. The
fog cleared, and at Laguna Negra, a glacial lake
along the road, we saw Andean Teal, Andean-tit
Spinetail and Sedge Wren. So many highlihts dur-
ing an incredible day of birding, and the afternoon
brought more. Hard to decide what the bird of the
day was, as we saw many special birds on our last
stop, including Rainbow-bearded Thornbill, Great
Pale-naped Brush-finch
Saphirewing, Shining Sunbeam, Blue-back Conebill
and the enigmatic, vulnerable and Endemic Rufous-
fronted Parakeet.
After an epic day of birding at high elevations, we
returned to the hotel for a nice soak in the hotsprings
and a lovely meal.
January 24: Drive to Cali We did not bird much this day as it was a trav-
el day, but we did stop for lunch near Sonso Lagoon
for a chance at Grayish Piculet, which did not appear
but we added Mouse-colored Tyrannulet to our trip
list. We arrived in Cali in time to have a few hours to
relax before going out for pizza and visiting the San
Antonio neighborhood, to the Loma de la Cruz park
to enjoy some Andean music and dancing.
January 25, 2014: Cristo Rey and Dolmetsch Ar-boretum The group had time to enjoy the morning
exploring the area near the hotel before heading up
to Cristo Rey for nice views of the city. We had the
pleasure of having Uber’s son with us, and enjoyed
the roadside art on the way up the mountain.
For lunch we met Alvaro Calonje at the Dol-
metsch Arboretum, and boy was it a nice lunch. The
wine flowed as stories were told and a healthy vari-
ety of food was enjoyed by all. The afternoon came
with a private tour of the gardens, a prefect prelude
to a farewell dinner along the Cali River.
